awe, that's sweet. yea, about the not really dead as ling as he's remembered, in native culture if a person was truely bad, they're name was whiped from all record so his spirit would die. even his name wasn't aloud to be used for 5 generations... or something like that.
and yea, we've all been there with being picked on for being different. for me, at first, i didn't want to be different, and i was misserable then i met my friends i have today, and we're the twons outcast, but we're happy.
i think people started calling us freaks the day we had this HUGE watergun fight in the halls at school. lol, i jumped up on a table and yelled 'For Richard and Scooter!' and ran down the hallway shooting like a maniac. lol, oh we got in trouble!
